Staff was above and beyond amazing. Facility is gorgeous, spacious and pleasing to the eyes. We always enjoy the food at waters edge, ponto lago and ember ant rye. I wasn’t thrilled with the fish and chips at pacific point. But husband loved the buns and the kids enjoyed their food

Great staff, 8 minute to beach. Seven min walk to bus route 101 to get to Oceanside transit center and catch Surfliner. Going south on the 101 will get you to La Jolla. Nice area. No homeless. Safe to come back at night. A residential area. Half of what I usually pay in Oceanside.
